Abstract

Resource master and slave combinations operating from separate local clocks asynchronously even though there may be wide speed variations among the devices, eliminating the need to synchronize the trailing edges of generated control signals with the local clock so as to free access to the resource as soon as possible without introducing timing or logic hazards.
